– All the safety and operating instructions

should be read before the appliance is operated.

Retain Instructions

– The safety and operating instructions

should be retained for future reference.

Heed Warnings

– All warnings on the appliance and in the

operating instructions should be adhered to.

Follow Instructions

– All operating and use instructions

should be followed.

Water and Moisture

– Do not use the appliance near water

–for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink, or laun-

dry tub; in a wet basement; or near a swimming pool; and the

like.

Cleaning

– Unplug the appliance from the wall outlet before

cleaning. The appliance should be cleaned with a dry cloth or

only as recommended by the manufacturer.

Ventilation

– Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided

for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the appliance

and to protect it from overheating, and these openings must not

be blocked or covered. Do not use the appliance on a bed, sofa,

rug, or other such surface. Newspapers, table clothes, curtains,

and other items can inadvertently block ventilation slots. Do

not place the unit near curtains that could obstruct the ventila-

tion. If you install the appliance in a built-in installation, such

as a bookcase or rack, ensure that there is adequate ventilation.

Leave 20 cm (8") of free space at the top and sides and 10 cm

(4") at the rear. The rear edge of the shelf or board above the

appliance should be set 10 cm (4") away from the rear panel or

wall, creating a ﬂue-like gap for warm air to escape.

Heat

– The appliance should be situated away from heat

sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appli-

ances (including ampliﬁer) that produce heat.

Grounding or Polarization

– The appliance may be equipped

with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having

one blade wider than the other). This plug will ﬁt into the

power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are

unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the

plug. If the plug should still fail to ﬁt, contact your electrician

to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety pur-

pose of the polarized or grounding-type plug.

A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding

prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your

safety. If the provided plug does not ﬁt into your outlet, consult

an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10.

Power-Cord Protection

– Power-supply cords should be

routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by

items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention

to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where

they exit from the appliance.

11.

Attachments

– Do not use attachments not recommended by

the appliance manufacturer as they may cause hazards.

Accessories

– Do not place the appliance on an unstable cart,

stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The appliance may fall, causing

serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the

appliance. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table

recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the appliance.

Any mounting of the appliance

should follow the manufacturer’s

instructions, and should use a

mounting accessory recommended

by the manufacturer.

12. An appliance and cart combination

should be moved with care to avoid

injury from tip-over.

Quick stops, excessive force, and

uneven surfaces may cause the

appliance and cart combination to

overturn.

13.

Lightning

– For added protection for the appliance during a

lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for

long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and discon-

nect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to

the appliance due to lightning and power-line surges.

14.

– Do not attempt to service the appliance yourself as

opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous volt-

age or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualiﬁed service

personnel.

Damage Requiring Service

– Unplug the appliance from the

wall outlet and refer servicing to qualiﬁed service personnel

under the following conditions:

A. When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged,

B. If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the

appliance,

C. If the appliance has been exposed to rain or water,

D. If the appliance does not operate normally by following the

operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are

covered by the operating instructions as an improper

adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will

often require extensive work by a qualiﬁed technician to

restore the appliance to its normal operation,

E. If the appliance has been dropped or damaged in any way,

and

F. When the appliance exhibits a distinct change in perfor-

mance – this indicates a need for service.

15.

sloping surface, because it may cause a malfunction.

• If you install this unit near a TV, radio, or VCR, the picture and

sound quality may be affected. If this occurs, move this unit

away from the TV, radio, or VCR.

7. Care

Occasionally, you should dust this unit all over with a soft cloth.

For stubborn stains, use a soft cloth dampened with a weak solu-

tion of mild detergent and water. Dry the unit immediately after-

wards with a clean cloth. Do not use abrasive cloths, thinners,

alcohol, or other chemical solvents, because they may damage

the ﬁnish or remove the panel lettering.

8. Handling Notes

• If you need to transport this unit, use the original packaging to

pack it how it was when you originally bought it.

• Do not use volatile liquids, such as insect sprays, near this

unit. Do not leave rubber or plastic items on this unit for a long

time, because they may leave marks on the case.

use. This is normal.

• When you’ve ﬁnished using this unit, remove all discs and

turn off the power.

• If you do not use this unit for a long time, it may not work

properly the next time you turn it on, so be sure to use it occa-

sionally.

9. To Obtain a Clear Picture

This unit is a high-tech, precision device. If the lens on the opti-

cal pickup, or the disc drive mechanism becomes dirty or worn,

the picture quality may be affected. To maintain the best picture

quality, we recommend regular inspection and maintenance

(cleaning or worn part replacement) every 1,000 hours of use

depending on the operating environment. Contact your Integra/

Onkyo dealer for details.

10. Moisture Condensation

Moisture condensation may damage this unit.

Read the following carefully:

When you take a glass containing a cold drink outside on a sum-

mer’s day, drops of water, called condensation, form on the out-

side of the glass. Similarly, moisture may condense on the lens

of the optical pickup, one of the most important parts inside this

unit.

• Moisture condensation can occur in the following situations:

— The unit is moved from a cold place to a warm place.

— A heater is turned on, or cold air from an air conditioner is

hitting the unit.

Before Using the DPC-7.4

Notes:

• The supplied batteries should last for about six months,

although this will vary with usage.

• If the remote controller doesn’t work reliably, try replacing

both batteries.

• Don’t mix new and old batteries, or different types of bat-

teries.

• If you intend not to use the remote controller for a long

time, remove the batteries to prevent possible leakage and

corrosion.

• Flat batteries should be removed as soon as possible to pre-

vent possible leakage and corrosion.

To use the remote controller, point it at the DPC-7.4’s remote

control sensor, as shown below.

Notes:

• The remote controller may not work reliably if the DPC-

7.4 is subjected to bright light, such as direct sunlight or

inverter-type ﬂuorescent lights. Keep this in mind when

installing the DPC-7.4.

• If another remote controller of the same type is used in the

same room, or the DPC-7.4 is installed close to equipment

that uses infrared rays, the remote controller may not work

reliably.

• Don’t put anything, such as a book, on the remote control-

ler, because the buttons may be pressed inadvertently,

thereby draining the batteries.

• The remote controller may not work reliably if the DPC-

7.4 is installed in a rack behind colored glass doors. Keep

this in mind when installing the DPC-7.4.

• The remote controller will not work if there’s an obstacle

between it and the DPC-7.4’s remote control sensor.

Connecting the DPC-7.4

This chapter explains how to connect the DPC-7.4 to your

other AV components.

• Read the manuals supplied with your AV components.

• Don’t connect the power cord until you’ve completed all

audio and video connections.

Optical Digital Inputs

The DPC-7.4’s optical digital connector

has a dust cap for keeping out dust and dirt

when it’s not in use. Remove the cap before

inserting an optical digital plug. Push the

plug in all the way to make a good connec-

tion. Keep the dust cap in a safe place for

future use.

RCA/phono AV Connection Color Coding

RCA/phono AV connections are usually color coded: red,

white, and yellow. Use red plugs to connect right-channel

audio inputs and outputs (typically labeled “R”). Use white

plugs to connect left-channel audio inputs and outputs (typi-

cally labeled “L”). And use yellow plugs to connect compos-

ite video inputs and outputs.

• Push each plug in all the way to

make a good connection (loose con-

nections can cause noise or malfunc-

tions).

•To prevent interference, keep audio

and video cables away from power

Connecting the DPC-7.4

—Continued

This section explains how to connect the DPC-7.4 to your TV

or projector.

In this hookup example, the TV handles the audio and video.

If your TV has a Dolby Pro Logic decoder built-in, you’ll be

able to enjoy DVDs and videos that bear the Dolby Surround

logo.

To enjoy Dolby Digital or DTS (5.1-channel surround),

you’ll need a compatible decoder (see page 18).

The DPC-7.4 has three types of video output: component

video, S-Video, and composite video. Component video

offers the best picture quality, so if your TV supports it, use

a commercially available component video cable to connect

the DPC-7.4’s COMPONENT video output to the compo-

nent video inputs on your TV. If your TV supports progres-

sive scanning, you must use component video in order to take

advantage of that feature.

S-Video offers better picture quality than composite video,

so if your TV supports it, use the supplied S-Video cable to

connect the DPC-7.4’s S VIDEO output to an S-Video input

on your TV. Failing that, use the supplied composite video

cable to connect the DPC-7.4’s VIDEO output to a composite

video input on your TV.

Notes

• Before making any connections, turn off the DPC-7.4 and

your TV and disconnect their power cords from the wall

outlets.

• Also refer to the connection information supplied with

your TV.

• Connect the DPC-7.4’s video outputs directly to your TV.

Don’t connect a VCR or other video equipment in between

your DPC-7.4 and TV. Doing so may result in picture dis-

tortion, because of the copy protection system used on

DVD-Videos.

• When you use the analog audio outputs, don’t play DTS

CDs and don’t select DTS soundtracks on DVD-Videos.

Doing so will produce unpleasant digital noise, which may

damage your equipment.

• If your TV or projector has BNC component video inputs,

use a BNC component video cable to connect them to the

DPC-7.4’s BNC component video outputs.

Connecting Your TV or Projector

Turn off the DPC-7.4 and your TV, and dis-

connect their power cords from the wall out-

lets.

Connect the DPC-7.4 to your TV as shown.

When you’ve completed all connections, see

“Powering Up & Setting Up the DPC-7.4” on

Connecting the DPC-7.4

—Continued

This section explains how to connect the DPC-7.4 to a stereo

hi-ﬁ amp or receiver for better sound quality than that of most

TVs. This is ideal for playing your audio CDs and MP3/

WMA discs in the DPC-7.4. DVD-Videos and Video CDs

will sound better too. You can also enjoy Dolby Pro Logic, so

long as your receiver supports it.

Analog Connection

Use an RCA/phono audio cable to connect the DPC-7.4’s

ANALOG AUDIO OUTPUTs to a pair of analog audio

inputs on your hi-ﬁ amp or receiver, as shown.

Notes:

• When you use the analog audio outputs, don’t play DTS

CDs or don’t select DTS soundtracks on DVD-Videos.

Doing so will produce unpleasant digital noise, which may

damage your equipment.

• The DPC-7.4 has two composite video output connectors

and two pairs of stereo analog audio output connectors.

They output the same video and audio signals respectively.

Digital Connection

Use an optical (or coaxial) digital audio cable to connect the

DPC-7.4’s OPTICAL (or COAXIAL) DIGITAL AUDIO

OUTPUT to an optical (or coaxial) input on your hi-ﬁ amp or

receiver, as shown.

Notes:

• Be sure to set the Digital Out–>Dolby Digital setting to

“Dolby Digital>PCM” (see page 42). Otherwise an

unpleasant digital noise may be heard, which may damage

your equipment.

•Never connect the DPC-7.4 to the AC-3RF input on a

Dolby Digital receiver. The AC-3RF format is not sup-

ported by the DPC-7.4.

To enjoy Dolby Digital or DTS surround sound, you need to

connect one of the DPC-7.4 digital audio outputs to the dig-

ital input on a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder or an AV

receiver with built-in decoders.

This hookup example will also allow you to enjoy Dolby Pro

Logic, so long as your decoder or AV receiver supports it.

Notes:

• In addition to a digital connection, we recommend also

connecting using the stereo analog connection.

To record the audio from a CD-R disc etc. to a cassette or

CDR recorder that’s connected to the AV receiver, and

when your AV receiver has Zone2, you must connect the

DPC-7.4’s analog audio outputs to the AV receiver.

• Make sure that the Digital Out > Dolby Digital setting to

“Dolby Digital” (see page 42). Otherwise you won’t get

surround sound.

• Also refer to the connection information supplied with

your AV receiver or decoder.

• When playing Dolby Digital or DTS source material, be

sure to select Dolby Digital or DTS decoding, respectively,

on your AV receiver or decoder. See the relevant manuals.

•You can experience Dolby Digital only with DVDs that

bear the Dolby Digital logo. Likewise, you can experience

DTS only with DVDs or CDs that bear the DTS logo.

• When a DVD disc is loaded into the DVD player, the disc

would default to Dolby digital format. For DTS playback

you would need to select DTS in the table of contents of

the movie. Usually in “Language” or in “Audio Setup”.

—Continued

You can use the following multi-room kits to control the

DPC-7.4 when it’s out of range of the remote controller:

• Integra Multi-Room System (IR Remote Controller Exten-

sion System)

• Multiroom AV distribution and control systems such as

those made by Niles

and Xantech

Controlling the DPC-7.4 When It’s Out of Range

If the DPC-7.4 is located in another room, installed in a cab-

inet, or out of range of its remote controller, you can use a

commercially available IR receiver to pickup the remote con-

troller signals and feed them to the DPC-7.4, as shown below.

Connect the IR receiver to the DPC-7.4 as shown below.

Controlling Other Out-of-range AV Components

If another AV component is out of range of its remote con-

troller, you can use a commercially available IR emitter to

retransmit the remote controller signals received at the DPC-

7.4’s IR IN, as shown below.

Connect the IR emitter to the DPC-7.4’s IR OUT, and place

the IR emitter in front of the other AV component’s remote

control sensor (usually located on its front panel), as shown

below. See the instructions supplied with the IR emitter.

Only remote controller signals received by the DPC-7.4’s IR

IN are fed through to the IR OUT. Signals picked up by the

DPC-7.4’s remote control sensor are not output.
